This widely-known superstition is a modern take from medieval times, where European churchgoers would touch wood the churches claimed was from the cross, according to Yahoo. Touching the wood supposedly gave a connection to divinity and thus good luck. https://padlet.com/nblackbu/clf30j9vqalv/wish/195301993 2017-10-09 16:41:36 UTC https://padlet.com/nblackbu/clf30j9vqalv/wish/195301993 OK, so not just whistling in general, but specifically whistling indoors and at the sun are both ill-advised actions according to Russian and Norwegian superstitions, respectively.

This tale is derived from Greek myth where the spirits of the dead would drink the water from the river Lethe. Lethe, the goddess and river of forgetfulness, would cause the spirit to forget its earthly past before it passed on into the underworld.]]> 2017-10-09 16:42:43 UTC https://padlet.com/nblackbu/clf30j9vqalv/wish/195302350 https://padlet.com/nblackbu/clf30j9vqalv/wish/195302360 Knocking on wood twice]]> 2017-10-09 16:42:44 UTC https://padlet.com/nblackbu/clf30j9vqalv/wish/195302360 https://padlet.com/nblackbu/clf30j9vqalv/wish/195302364 Upside down cross]]> 2017-10-09 16:42:45 UTC https://padlet.com/nblackbu/clf30j9vqalv/wish/195302364 https://padlet.com/nblackbu/clf30j9vqalv/wish/195302413 2017-10-09 16:42:56 UTC https://padlet.com/nblackbu/clf30j9vqalv/wish/195302413 Brayden https://padlet.com/nblackbu/clf30j9vqalv/wish/195302446 An awkward silence means an angle is passing over
